Gaffer Tape said:JohnBoy's post makes me wonder something else. Many things, actually. If they are supposed to live at the Jedi Temple but aren't monitored (even a check-in/check-out system), when are they required to be at the temple? Do they have to be there at all? Is every indivdual Jedi summoned when each individual Jedi has something particular to do? How often does the council meet? Who cleans the temple? Do Jedi have single rooms or do they bunk with other Jedi? Are they required to check in every so often? And if so, with whom? How will they know if someone just never comes back? That's not out of the realm of possibility: after all, Dooku and Sifo-Dias managed to elude their grasp.
Obviously, I'm looking to PT-era EU readers to come to my aid here. ^_^
I think some Jedi were allowed to just quit the order. In the EU Quinlan Vos intended to retire after the Clone Wars. And I don't get the impression Count Su Doku was in any trouble when he quit. But I don't know.
